Is it? Out of that 100 grand you would get maybe 15 or 20 fencing it. Split that 2 or 3 ways and you get a few Gs for taking major risks. By contrast, depending on his hustle a crack dealer could make that in a day or two.

Don't get me wrong though, dude was definitely a cowboy. It just seems that he could have chosen a more lucrative hustle.

He did, which is why hes a millionare now.

yeah Ice was all about hitting Licks back in da day... snatching jeweles and robbed banks.... he doesnt like to talk about the bank stuff too much

he was a affiliated with Crips but never joined a gang.... he also pimped for a minute
He's probably responsible for a couple of unsolved bank robberies lol.
Alot of bank robberies never get solved/suspect caught but they never mention those on tv cause they don't want to encourage more robbers.

Still doesn't change the fact Ice-T was active in one the most dangerous cities in America. But kids are calling 50 Cent soft, so I think being about that life means almost nothing in this environment to be successful.
I'm not a fan of 50 anymore but just like to point out that most people calling these rappers soft are suburban kids.

on some real sh!t, why do people expect rappers to incriminate themselves by saying things that they've done that could get them locked up just for some fake respect and love? do you expect ice t to say things that could get him locked up such as implicating himself in a murder mystery? you think he's going to risk where he's at now over getting some dap on a web forum or from a bunch of nobody's that can't put food on his table? i know i wouldn't. folks are acting like the police aren't looking for work to do such as locking people up. f*ck being about that life for some nobody's showing love. it's about getting paid. i think the people that are so interested in people being about that life need to do it themselves since they're so interested in it but they won't because they don't have the balls to do it. says a lot. you can't respect a lifestyle that you yourself wouldn't even get involved in if you had the chance to.
